Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix configuration against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and temperature rating. Confirm availability status as this specific part number may be subject to discontinuation or limited stock. Request updated datasheets and pinout files directly from authorized distributors to validate mechanical dimensions and electrical specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Compare the 5SGXMA4H3F35I4 against other Stratix V variants based on required transceiver count and logic density. Ensure the 1152-pin FBGA package fits the target PCB layout constraints. Verify that the 900 mV core voltage requirement aligns with the system power delivery network design. Consider thermal management solutions given the high performance and power consumption characteristics of the Stratix V GX family.

Part Context
